Comments on Kindle 2's Missing Cover
If the Kindle 2 had a cover, it would look like this. (Read
the complete story)
| "Notably, since Adams emerged from (gasp) radio and TV scripting (e.g. Doctor Who) rather than the pulp magazines, the science-fiction literary establishment ignored him completely for many years even after his books became successful in the '80s.

Only a slapstick humorist would imagine a 'standard repository of all knowledge and wisdom' that 'has many omissions and contains much that is apocryphal, or at least wildly inaccurate' and where 'most of the actual work got done by any passing stranger who happened to wander into the empty offices on an afternoon and saw something worth doing.'"
